Amos Eshel (born 23 April, 1986) is an Alumnus Member of Gamma Epsilon Chapter (ΓΕ 514) at the University of Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics & Computer Science.

Early Fraternity Life

Amos joined Phi Sigma Pi after meeting a few brothers through his older (biological) brother Oded Eshel (also a member of the Gamma Epsilon chapter). Meeting the amazing people in Fall '04, his first semester in college, made the decision to rush Phi Sigma Pi a simple one. Amos rushed Spring '05 (his freshman year), making him a member of the Pi Class.

Collegiate Years at Gamma Epsilon Chapter

Amos was very active as an Initiate and continued being amongst the most active Brothers throughout his time as an undergrad. He spent every semester as a committee chair, until his super-senior year when he served on E-Board. Throughout the semesters he received many Chapter superlatives including Best Hugger and Most Likely to Succeed, as well as an award for Best Brother. Amos held the following positions as an undergrad in the Gamma Epsilon Chapter:
